What do we do?

We are an organization that pioneers innovative ways to create conversation. We organize public events throughout Arizona in the fields of policy and art. Our events mix these two worlds to show us how they are connected. Our goal is to bring together people of different backgrounds to discuss ideas with a fact-based perspective, find common ground, and look for solutions.

Information and news outlets have been crammed with unhelpful, polarizing rhetoric. Political agendas feed the noise, which makes it difficult to get different viewpoints and the best arguments for each side. Arizona Talks is a clear alternative but more importantly, a competitor for the next generation’s hearts and minds.

Who is this for?

Arizona Talks events are meant to break the partisan divide and unite communities of all viewpoints, ages, and backgrounds. We promote learning, free thought, and dialogue. Our events are also meant to be networking tools for communities to make personal and professional connections.
